what do you mean? your dagger give 9.7% add (370% from passive and 80% from dagger = 43.5) is 53%. nothing is wrong, if you want more you should go dual wielding.

I just wonder if it's possible to go higher than that without dual wield, 'cause it's way harder than I thought to go through bosses with that. Or I'm having something wrong, which is possible too :D

you're really lacking block. should have at least 60% block chance at your level with perandus. get resist and life on both ring, and switch amulet with lazhwar. spell chance is better than resist. switch slitherpinch with life, resist and attack speed if you can afford that. switch 1 ek with life leech, or use lmp-st-coc-3ek.

i tried frost wall today with this lol...ppl left really fast. u could technically corner just about anything with this its pretty ridiculous.

Hey guys, just a little update, I finally got my final skilltree.

My program tried to maximize dps*life^1.5 for my gear:




Keep it mind it's optimal for gameplay, my gear & my setup, it might not be for yours:
Stats and calculations are done with 20/20 gems, with Cyclone + CoC + BM + LL + EK + EK ; Power charges are always up ; Crit weakness is casted ; I'm on Granite & Jade flask at all time ; Bandits -> 40hp / 18% phys dmg / Power Charge.


(I guess noone would have realize that, but I actually need to hit level 91, I'll need a +30 Intel point haha, or a +30 Intel ring or w/e)


Just a little last thing: While dual wielding with daggers for this build, Ambushers are apparently better than Platinum Kris. That surprised me too, but the APS gain is much better than the loss of 40% global crit chance per dagger (implicit). And ofc the lower base crit chance doesnt matter since I'm already capped with a 8.95% base crit chance one.

I hope there isn't too many calculation errors ! Feel free to tell me about them =)

EDIT: For those who wonder, while my chest isn't 6L, i'm using Tabula and this skilltree:

I can run Purity in addition to Hatred & Grace that way. All the necessary nodes are accessible, I'll just respect the pathing (i.e. remove Charisma nodes and take the right path) once I 6L my chest.
I got 4260 HP and 65.7k dps with my current gems lvl/quality.

hello,

im currently leveling this build (tanky version) in nemesis, and so far okay, lvl 59

but I do have to wonder how do you deal with single target, especially rare and boss. does the linked ek's are enough dps/trigger at higher lvls? if so what kind of crit chance/ek gem lvl/tool tip ek dps (yeah I know) are key lvls ?

thanks.


also fun build ty to the OP :D

looking for advice.. respecced my ek scion into somewhat this kind of build
running with shield atm

discipline,grace,hatred,clarity,aa

cyclone cast on crit EK EK lifeleech (i have enough manaregen to spin infinitly with clarity)

i can tank things fine just takes a long time to kill them
feels like my EK's are barely casting.

i have 40% critchance with some random 90% global crit dagger atm
my cast on crit gem is like lvl 12 (around 50% chance to cast EK on crit)

do i need more crit? better weapon (a golden kris)?
would it help to switch to maligaros virtuosity maybe
amulet with some crit
can i benefit from power charges somehow?

gear atm:

your tree is pretty different with op build, why picking evasion node if pick IR and not picking any block chance while you're using shield? taking many mana regen but not taking MoM.

better switch ungil with higher local crit chance, you use ungil for its extra block whiel dual wielding.

i am at lvl 69 now and just with 35% crit chance, taking piety took some time with ST and LMP. switching to cyclone and mana leech can help kill her faster. crit chance is your key, but higher attack speed is more important if you already have 45% crit chance or so with the tanky build.

my current tree :



will go after right block chance after this, have 62% block and 56% spell block with rathpith and tempest shield

frankly i dont know how he can sustain high level AA+cyclone without more manaregen nodes
thinking of going dw scion

would something like this work? (can respec into this atm - missed a few things on my last post)




i specced into evasion for extra armor against reflect (?)
if its not needed its always adjustable.
